Yes, the Earth’s Moon does orbit the Sun, but it does so as a part of the Earth-Moon system.

Thus, in a broader perspective, the Moon indirectly orbits the Sun along with the Earth.

the moon and the sun


What happens when the gravitational forces of the Sun and the moon combine?

When the gravitational forces of the Sun and the Moon combine, it results in tidal forces on Earth. These tidal forces cause the ocean water to bulge out towards the Sun and the Moon, creating high and low tides. The Sun and Moon's gravitational forces work together to influence the Earth's tides in a complex way.
